Grocery shopping this morning and then I’d like to do some food prep this afternoon. Besides those things, I don’t know what else will be going on here, but I’m sure I’ll be kept busy!
Jennifer Wilson
Hubby finally got our cold water working. We’ve been without hot water since November. A cold water pipe was leaking so he had to reroute the cold water through the hot water pipes. Now that pipe is fixed and we can flush the toilet without having to turn both faucets on at the sink and relying on water pressure to fill the tank. lol
Carolyn D
It has been a hectic week. I am looking forward to a much needed restful weekend.
Tamra Phelps
Woke up to storms this morning. Sun’s out now. Expect more rain later. That pretty much describes every day here lately, lol.

Kate
My day went half great and half lousy. 🙂 The great part was that I decided to redesign and totally organize my pantry… I’m so glad it’s done! The lousy part is that I twisted my back in doing it. Hopefully it will be back to normal by morning.

Ed
Having a good day. Looking forward to working game 2 between the Jets and Stars tomorrow night.
Tamra Phelps
My brother and oldest nephew came by today to help me out with stuff I can’t do on my own, like cleaning things I can’t reach (top of the fridge, stove hood, etc.) Glad to get that done.
Jennifer Wilson
We did a day trip near DC yesterday and did a little thrifting. I found the most wonderful chair ever at a Habitat for Humanity Restore for $55. I think that it was a bit on the pricey side considering it was used and missing a roller on the ottoman. (From my websearches it looks like it’s about $200 new at Amazon and that may even be a nicer version of what I found). But it is so comfortable. I have a lot of problems with my legs and to find a chair that comfortable is fantastic. It is also very low to the ground (I’m wondering if its made more for tweens or kids) and that makes it comfy.
Terri Quick
It’s been a busy day but I’m still standing lol
l p
the day is going well. busy with an early start for groceries. news is not good re the refrigerator – have to wait at least a week before the part comes in. enjoy your day. thanks

Michele Soyer
Home today…Planning on washing the windows outside and waiting for deliveries…We decided on a white tree this year for Christmas with all red ornaments….Always wanted one but my hubsand hated the idea…did a trial run with the tree and it fits the living room perfectly so put it away…all the ornaments should arrive today…later on calling the retaurant for Saturday reservations…sun is shining and the temp will get into the 70’s today…
Tamra Phelps
For several years, Michele, I had a white tree. I loved it. You can do any color with it and it will pop. Mine had one of those rotating things in the base that caused the tree to light up with whatever color you wanted the lights to be (the tree had fiber optic pine ‘needles’ that reflected the light.
Michele Soyer
I love those..My aunt always had one and the colors that shone on the tree were beautiful…
Angela
It could be better. It has been raining for days. I am ready for some sun.
Anne Perry
Today is going tto be a great day. I thinkl I’ll plant some green beans and corn.
Ashley S
My day went well. A little stressful. We’re rennovating and the contractors were here working. The stress of that and then trying to keep the dog and cat out of the way can be…a lot.
Shelly Peterson
I had a great day. The weather was beautiful and I went to lunch with my daughter and friend.
Tamra Phelps
There is a chill in the air today. We’ve gone back down into the 50s, lol. Mother Nature has lost her mind.

natosha
That party looks so wonderful! The colors, the decor, it’s just magnifique! I am lately trying to get out of being in my normal rotuine of being indoors and getting outside more, since Spring is here and I want to spend more time in the sun🌞. I hope everyone the best and most marvelous day every day!
l p

Ed
Having a good day. Began my 3rd season coaching my youngest daughter’s soccer team today.
Tamra Phelps
Gloria, I remember reading the old Nancy Drew books, and I have heard they updated them. Also, remember the Boxcar Kids books??? They have updated those too.
gloria patterson
Tamra I don’t remember the box car kids at all. Checked on amazon and they have the original book that was first dated 1924. I saved the newer versions on my Wish list. If Zay read these Nancy Drew then I will order some of these for her.
gloria patterson
Had a few things to do was home by 11 am………………….. and in the recliner slept for almost 4 hrs
No energy today
gloria patterson
QUESTION FOR EVERYONE……………………………….. lol ————- NANCY DREW books
Do you REMEMBER WAY back ( if you are old) reading Nancy Drew books and/or cartoons/tv shows ???????????????????/
Great niece who is 8 ( going on 21 🙂 ) is starting to get a little interested in reading different types of books. She has asked me several time to get her some book about this/that.
I was in dollar tree and saw some Nancy Drew books and I passed them up because I was thinking they were old. BUT backed up and pulled one of the shelve and started to read. THEY have up dated it, today they have computer, cell phone etc.
Let say I am reading one of them and it is not bad………………. I bought 8 of them in order.
Michele Soyer
I read them all…My mom even bought a speical bookcase for them to go in…I remember loving them….
gloria patterson
I have to admit I always liked the Nancy Drew books, don’t remember a lot about the stories but I was always looking for another one to read.
Shelly Peterson
It’s Monday already and back to dialysis I go.
Michele Soyer
After breakfast heading out to see the cherry blossoms…have the bus route planned out but hey one never knows..

Soha Molina
Happy bday to granddaughter.
Shelly Peterson
I’ve been spending the day doing cleaning.
Tamra Phelps
Rain again today. I hope it isn’t raining tomorrow when I have to go to the lymphedema clinic (they do massage to reduce swelling/inflammation)–if you have to go out in the rain, it never fails to get on the wheelchair, and you wind up feeling lke you’re sitting in water, lol. Ugh.
Elizabeth
Hoping to relax today, no set plans yet…
Terri Quick
I’m exhausted. I wish that I could sleep like Rip Van Winkle lol
Shannon Mitchell
The sun is out so that makes me happy.

Michele Soyer
Happy Birthday to mom! May she have a year filled with good health and love….
heather
Good Sunday morning. I am still waking up sipping my tea and watching SNL clips from last night.
Elizabeth
Just finished breakfast, not sure what’s going on…
Michele Soyer
The parade was very colorful and fun…Today I am staying put – roast already in oven and will watch mass later on…The cherry blossoms are in full bloom in Como Park in St. Paul so that is on my agenda for tomorrow…. Happy Sunday all…
Anne Perry
A wonderful Sunday. Coffee and giveaways.
Jennifer Wilson
I was so happy that we got water back yesterday. Our town has been under a boil water advisory since Tuesday, and not even being able to brush your teeth in tap water is annoying. So, imagine my annoyance when there was another water main break yesterday about 2 hours after the boil water advisory had been lifted. More brown water. We’re back under a boil water advisory until minimum at 10pm tomorrow night. Tuesday through Sunday. This is crazy. Send help. All our dishes are dirty, we’re now just eating out even though we really can’t afford it. Ate at BK three times the other day because it was cheap.
Ed
Having a good day. Got some much needed raking done today.
Tamra Phelps
It ha rain4ed all day here in KY. If you watched the KY Derby today, you probably know that. Talk about a messy race.

Another one of those Woke up and could not go back to sleep. Finally decided to do laundry 2:00 AM Gathered up regular laundry, and 3 nice size blankets. Laundry room empty so loaded up 4 washers. 4 am every thing put away, recliner here I come. Turned TV on watched about 30 minutes of a movie and I was out.
I have done a little bit of nothing the rest of the day.

So my day so far, YIKES!
I’m home alone. I start streaming music on my phone and got into the shower, started shampooing my hair and the power went off. So the song that was playing was “Anxiety” by Doechii, I was like this is how horror movies start lol. I got a text from the power company saying it would be back on in 2 hours. It came back on 30 minutes later. I’m just happy it’s back on.

I may make a trip to the library this morning I think I have some items waiting to be picked up. I wanted to comment on the pink roses that are around the beautiful mirror in the picture above. I am betting that Connie made those by hand! They are soooooooooooooo pretty!
